UT on Wednesday released a 2012-’13 nonconference schedule highlighted by games against Georgetown, Michigan State, North Carolina and UCLA.

North Carolina, who the Longhorns will play for the fourth year in a row, will visit the Erwin Center on Dec. 19. UT also will be the home team against UCLA at Houston’s Reliant Stadium on Dec. 8.

The Dec. 22 game at Michigan State will mark the sixth time since 2007 the Longhorns and Spartans have met. A showdown against Georgetown at the Jimmy V Classic on Dec. 4, on the other hand, will be the first time UT has played the Hoyas since 1972.

After opening the season at home against Fresno State on Nov. 9, the Longhorns host Coppin State on Nov. 12 before heading to the EA Sports Maui Invitational from Nov. 19-21. The Maui field includes Butler, Chaminade, Illinois, Marquette, Mississippi State, North Carolina, and USC.
